À propos de cet audio
Inside a beautiful house in Philadelphia's ritzy Main Line section lay the body of a young mother - dead of an apparent drowning in her bathtub. With no sign of a break-in, no history of marital problems, and the naïve belief that these things sometimes just happen, Stefanie Rabinowitz's family prepared to bury the 29-year-old wife and mother. But at the 11th hour, because Stefanie was so young, and because there were no witnesses to her death, an autopsy was ordered. And what it revealed was unthinkable: Stefanie had been murdered - strangled in her home, then dragged into the tub to stage a fake drowning. Even more shocking was the suspected killer - Stefanie's 34-year-old husband, Craig: devoted family man, loyal husband, and "everybody's best friend".
When the astounding truth began to emerge, so did the tawdry double life of Craig Rabinowitz, a man so obsessed with a $2,000-a-week exotic dancer that his habit caused him to look to the insurance money he would get from murdering his wife. Now, with exclusive interviews and startling inside details, best-selling author Ken Englade blows wide open the shocking true account of a storybook marriage that ended in bone-chilling murder.
Contains mature themes.

Overdramatized but "Decent"
Ken Englade offers a well-explored case surrounding a Jewish Pennsylvania lawyer - involved in sketchy business scams and a sugar-daddy relationship - who murdered his wife for insurance money to fuel his out-of-control spending. Craig Rabinowitz charms friends, family, and colleagues in a mindblowing display of swindling skills. The events are a case study on the topic of misplaced trust.
Less fortunately, Englade presents the crime, investigation, and trial with a television script-quality exposition. The amount of artistic license taken throws the authenticity of the information into question (None of the extensive dialogue and running inner thoughts in this book actually happened). The book is Ken Englade's imagined interpretation of what *might* have happened between family, friends, investigators, and lawyers. This based-on-a-true-story adaptation of an admittedly captivating case is more a "Movie Of The Week" than a True Crime work.
As to presentation: Reader Sean Runnette is "competent" - displaying creditable diction, timbre, cadence, and voice-acting.. but an evident "I am reading a book sitting open on my lap" disinterest.
Altogether, 'Everybody's Best Friend' is a 7/10-star recording. If you can get it as a 'Plus' title, it's a reasonable way to distract you during a long drive or while doing some house & garden work. If they ask for a Credit, better options beckon.
